Daily Herald story I would love a cruise that stayed overnight in SXM!! Of the other ports, I'm sorry, Cartagena?? I haven't been there for a long time, but as of the last time I was there, I would not want to be there overnight, as I wouldn't feel safe going anywhere after night..

Of the ports mentioned in that story, it would be neat to have an overnight in Aruba or in Cozumel, but otherwise, not sure I'd be too interested, other than SXM, of course!

Oh, we often did that on Caribbean cruises, at ports we had been to a million times, or places I didn't care for, like the Bahamas..

St. Maarten/St. Martin is not an unfamiliar port at all to an experienced cruiser. I think there will be a LOT of cruise folks who will go out on their own. Frankly, if I were on such a cruise, I would have NO interest in an excursion in the evening, and I doubt there will be many that will. And when the ship stays in port overnight, there will be a lot more experienced people who will rent cars. This is truly a win, win for SXM..

That would be neat, if they have cruise docks that can accomodate these huge ships today.

thewaterfront said: A two day stay in Cuba would be very attractive to Miami vacationers and a boom to RCI at this point in time. Especially since there are sub standard hotels in Havana now However, Cuba is still off limits for American tourists, soon come
